+ TARGETS FOR RELEASE 0.2 - The Human Interaction release
+=========================================================
+
+User-interface
+--------------
+- [ONGOING] Ability to fully control a robot or a human as "first
+  person shooter" to interact with other robots
+    - Ability to control a human with mouse + keyboard (turning head, moving around, sitting down)
+    - Ability to pick/release objects by clicking on them
+
+Middlewares
+-----------
+- Requests: be sure that components can be remotely (ie by clients) configured

+Components
+----------
+
+- [ONGOING] Arm control: support setting the position of the PA-10 arm by reading a set of 6 angles (commit 77700c258d2a)
+- Arm control: support setting the position of two KUKA LWR arms by reading
+a set of 14 angles (7 per arm)
+- Animated human export: MORSE should export the complete armature of the human
+- Motion capture poster: MORSE should be able to simulate a motion capture setup
+by allowing the designer to paste markers in the scene whose position will be exported
+- Viman-like sensor: MORSE should be able to export position, orientation, name 
+of marked objects.

 Code organisation
 -----------------
 [DEFERRED] - One repo for scenarii (morse-scenarii.git)
 
 Architecture
 ------------
-* how components access other components? (eg: the cameras need the position of the robot)
-* unified time management ("what if we want to simulate at 2X?")

-Middlewares
------------
-* Rethink the architecture ; three proposals:
-[DISCARDED] - Current solution: one abstract interface. Issues: only one middleware at
-     once ; coupling. In any case, current code must be rewritten (factories,
-	 etc)
-[ONGOING]   - Components have "hooks" to export their data. Middleware lives in parallel
-     threads and "visit" the components. In this case, middlewares still lives
-	 in the Python VM. Advantage: better decoupling ; middleware can dynamically
-	 choose what they want to watch.
-[DEFFERED]   - External decoupling: Python components export their data as shared memory
-     (or possibly sockets?), external modules (written in any language) read
-	 this memory and format it for each middleware. Advantage: complete decoupling.
-	 If a middleware crashes/slowdowns, no impact on the simulator, language
-	 independant (may be good for Genom3). Issues: "one more copy", could be harder
-	 to manage (one more protocol to manage: what happen if we update the simulator
-	 but not the middleware, etc), debugging, requests harder to implement.
